"The three resolutions that were part of the effort were expected to fail, but the votes gave a measure of the level of discontent among Senate Democrats over the Biden administration’s unconditional support for Israel. As many as 19 senators voted in favor of at least one of the resolutions"

If the military pick up one US citizen and detain them, 𝘗𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘴 will be brought into play with a vengeance. The lawsuits will prove interesting.

As for Federalising the various state National Guard units. Really? Without a declared war and threat of invasion by an opposing force? Then, using those units to enforce his policies in unaligned states... fighting between opposing Guard units becomes a very real possibility. Trump stands to create civil war in the USA in 2025.

#ArabAmericans are facing vicious pushback for refusing to abandon #Palestine, but people interested in a better world should follow our lead instead of mourning the neoliberal order.

"Let's put it this way, if the ethics committee had no dirt to hide on Gaetz, why wouldn't they release the report in a heartbeat?"

I missed this from Gideon Levy in Haaretz on Thursday, hard-hitting and spot on.

"The new people in charge of the U.S.'s foreign policy are friends of apartheid, occupation, the settlements and war. Trump is the most moderate and restrained of this lot. He may restrain them somewhat. Itamar Ben-Gvir may also take part in restraining this group of wackos in Washington, if only he overcomes the language barrier"

"Beyond similarities in their backgrounds, personalities and motivations, Trump and Netanyahu exemplify figureheads of what Italian writer and philosopher Umberto Eco described as “Ur-fascism.’

Ur-Fascism combines traditionalism, irrationalism and authoritarianism to manipulate and control through several defining traits"
